Abstract :
Open problems in controllability and stabilisability of analytic systems are discussed. In particular, questions like, “Can controllability and/or stabilisability be tested by solving algebraic equations?” and, “What is the relationship between controllability from a state and stabilisability to the same state?” are discussed. A main idea is a rethinking of how one might examine stabilisability by connecting it to controllability.
